High Roller Technologies Eyes Prediction Markets Launch With Crypto.com Partnership

High Roller Technologies plans to launch its ROLR prediction-markets platform in the U.S. through an exclusive 24-month partnership with Crypto.com, leveraging Crypto.com’s regulatory licenses and liquidity infrastructure. The company expects the structure to support access in 42 states. The company is nearing completion of platform development and user testing, with app-store approval the main remaining launch hurdle. Its technology deal provides ownership of the customer-facing platform and a perpetual worldwide license to backend technology. High Roller is funding the transition with $26 million raised in January and plans to use performance-marketing partnerships to acquire customers efficiently. CEO Seth Young cited a potential prediction-markets opportunity reaching $1.5 trillion in annual contract volume by 2030. High Roller Technologies NYSEAMERICAN: ROLR is preparing to enter the U.S. prediction markets sector through its ROLR brand, supported by a partnership with Crypto.com, an introducing broker license from the National Futures Association and a recently announced technology arrangement, Chief Executive Officer Seth Young said during a company presentation. Young said the company, which began as an online casino operator in 2021, shifted strategy in 2025 following its 2024 initial public offering. High Roller has operated the casino brands under Curacao and Estonian licenses, but it began shuttering many markets as it repositioned around prediction markets. The company reported approximately $30 million in top-line revenue in 2024 and about $20 million in 2025, Young said, characterizing the decline as occurring in the context of closing most of its casino markets. He said the remaining casino operations have improved their unit economics and continue to be managed while the company prepares its prediction-market launch. High Roller’s agreement with Crypto.com is intended to provide a faster route into the prediction-market business. Young said Crypto.com holds futures commission merchant, designated contract market and derivatives clearing organization licenses, while High Roller will manage the customer relationship and connect users to Crypto.com’s liquidity pool. “Our consumers are able to have trading capabilities straight away,” Young said. High Roller has secured an introducing broker license from the NFA, according to Young. The company is exclusive to Crypto.com in the United States for 24 months beginning in April, while the agreement does not limit High Roller’s ability to pursue international opportunities or seek additional licenses in the future. Young said the Crypto.com compliance structure is expected to allow High Roller to enter 42 states and offer customers access to existing network liquidity. He described prediction markets as federally regulated financial products, distinguishing them from the state-by-state framework governing online sports betting and casino gaming in the U.S. The company raised $26 million in January, including $25 million through a registered direct offering and $1 million through a private placement, Young said. High Roller reported $18 million in cash equivalents and just under $30 million in shareholders’ equity at the end of the second quarter. Young said High Roller has acquired rights to technology through an agreement involving Markets.com, also referred to as Elon Till, and DeepEther Labs. The company had been working with the technology provider under a consulting arrangement while negotiating the longer-term deal, he said.
